Your post has depth, spirit, wisdom, experience, and INTELLIGENCE. I'm afraid not one of the fascists who might attempt to read it would have the vaguest idea of what it means! They don't speak your language.

Speaking for everyone else, I have to thank you, so much. You went away to war, too, in the '60's, only you didn't go to hurt anyone, only to help.

That was an astonishing time when we realize how much really happened then which HAD to happen.

So much more is needed, but what happened in the 60's was imperative as things couldn't have gotten any worse for the soul of this nation. Things were far too evil.

Long way to go still ahead, but what happened in this country during that time was beyond belief in human advancement.

The right wing wants to put everything back prior to the '60's, before such strides were accomplished. It's not going to happen. There really are far too many of us now. They are screwed! It's just taking some of them a long time to wake up to the facts.

Red-baiting is simply trashy behavior. Odd. Stupid. It's what we expect from failed people.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. So glad to have read it.
